We had another beautiful mass this evening, with the children in costume, 12 priests, sisters from two orders, Knights of Columbus in full regalia as an honor guard to the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe, flags of the Americas, and a candlelight procession. As an added bonus this year, one of the priests sang a beautiful rendition of Schubert’s “Ave Maria.”

The dinner was wonderful; we had a pianist and a trumpet player for dinner music.

Did you know that Jeb Bush made a visit to the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City to pray for the election when the Florida recount started? And he gave President Bush an image of Our Lady from Mexico, and I have seen it in several of the photographs of the White House living quarters.
